It's not really related at all - the OP was talking about putting an
LCD in the field of view, which is very different from replacing video
lines with data lines. The latter method is impossible given my design
constraint - don't modify the camera. It would be impossible to
document a generic solution to do anything involving insertion of data
into the video stream, because the video path inside camcorders isn't
standardized (esp. not with respect to what parts of it are accessible
and what parts are buried in an ASIC).
